The switch can be used standalone for a group of heavy traffic users. You can connect computers directly to the switch’s port or connect other switches to the ES-4024. In this example, all computers connected directly or indirectly to the ES-4024 can share super high-speed applications on the server.
Ethernet cables and adapter cards, restructuring your network and complex maintenance. The ES-4024 can provide the same bandwidth as FDDI and ATM at much lower cost while still being able to use existing adapters and switches. Moreover, the current LAN structure can be retained as all ports can freely communicate with each other.
Shared resources such as a server can be used by all ports in the same VLAN as the server, as shown in the following example. In this example, only ports that need access to the server need belong to VLAN 3 while they can belong to other VLAN groups too.

Dimension ES-4024 Ethernet Switch 7.2 Introduction to Port-based VLANs Port-based VLANs are VLANs where the packet forwarding decision is based on the destination MAC address and its associated port. Port-based VLANs require allowed outgoing ports to be defined for each port. Therefore, if you wish to allow two subscriber ports to talk to each other, for example, between conference rooms in a hotel, you must define the egress (an egress port is an outgoing port, that is, a port through which a data packet leaves) for both ports.

Dimension ES-4024 Ethernet Switch Chapter 25 DVMRP This chapter introduces DVMRP and tells you how to configure it. 25.1 Introduction to DVMRP DVMRP (Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol) is a protocol used for routing multicast data within an autonomous system (AS). This DVMRP implementation is based on draft-ietf-idmr-dvmrp-v3-10. DVMRP provides multicast forwarding capability to a layer 3 switch that runs both the IPv4 protocol (with IP Multicast support) and the IGMP protocol.
Dimension ES-4024 Ethernet Switch 25.2.1 DVMRP Terminology DVMRP probes are used to discover other DVMRP Neighbors on a network. DVMRP reports are used to exchange DVMRP source routing information.
